The SAG Awards were presented last weekend, with prizes in the movie categories going to Chadwick Boseman, Viola Davis, Yuh-Jung Youn, Daniel Kaluuya and “The Trial of the Chicago 7” cast. It was the first time all four individual movie honors went to people of color. Glenn Whipp took a look at what the winners might mean moving forward, as the quartet of SAG acting winners have gone on to win on Oscar night in two of the last three years.
This being such an out-of-the-ordinary awards season, there is much anticipation about the Oscars show itself, particularly coming together under the supervision of producers Stacey Sher, Jesse Collins and Steven Soderbergh. Part of their plan includes using L.A.’s historic Union Station for what looks to be a most out-of-the-ordinary show, but The Times’ Carolina Miranda wrote a thoughtful and provocative essay on why they should have picked the Music Center instead.
